Penerapan Media Literasi di SD Negeri 151/II Renah Sungai Besar

Abstract

SD Negeri 151/II Renah Sungai Besar is located in Limbur District, Bungo Regency, Jambi Province. The crucial problem in this school is the lack of Indonesian language skills possessed by students where students are more likely to use local languages ​​instead of Bahasa in the school environment due to the lack of literacy programs in schools. Consequently, students’ literacy skills are still low. Therefore, it is necessary to apply literacy programs to develop their language skills and motivation. This program aims to enhance students’ motivation and engagement in regard to the literacy program. There are three media used to deal with the related issue, which are the Reading Corner, the Wall Magazine, and Poster. The results of the implementation of this program are able to motivate students to improve their Indonesian language skills. It can be seen from increased students’ motivation and results in the post-test. This activity is also expected to be able to encourage schools to develop active literacy programs in schools, such as reading corner, wall-magazine, and poster.
